If we were having coffee
Every paragraph needs to start with these words. Or every stanza of your poem. I would prefer prose for this one. I'm entering this one as an example.

bitter-sweet

if we were having coffee

id take mine bitter-sweet and cold

we would pretend to have more time

though that lie is getting old

if we were having coffee

i think i might avoid your gaze

it would make it less painful

to miss your eyes on my bad days

if we were having coffee

id withhold my feelings from you

we just aren't meant to be right now

i promise its the right thing to do

if we were having coffee

id brush my fingers across your face

in hopes that the future is in our favor

when its the right time and right place
